Kazakhstan Digital Accelerator

Pushing the boundaries with Central Asia’s finest

Kazakhstan is the largest economy in Central Asia and home to one of the most vibrant and dynamic startup ecosystems. It is also the 9th largest country in the world, strategically linking large and fast-growing markets of China and South Asia and those of Russia and Western Europe by road, rail, and a port on the Caspian Sea. Markedly connected, 65% of the population of Kazakhstan have access to the LTE network.

In recent years, its development has pushed the envelope in the region, including e-government and digital services. A rapidly growing economy coupled with the necessary network infrastructure to launch technological solutions provides many opportunities and challenges to solve for tech startups at the frontier of innovation.
